John Andrew Williams

{short bio}

Educator, Coach, Speaker, Researcher, I am the founder of three life coach training companies including Academic Life Coaching and Essential Coach Training. A former writer for Newsweek and author of five books, I’ve been a keynote speaker for conferences in Portland, Oregon to Dubai, UAE.

My expertise is in student (and employee) engagement and creativity. I’m most interested in how technology can have a positive impact on education and how organizations are harnessing technology to enrich human interaction as well as be more productive and creative.

I live in Portland, Oregon, mountain bike weekly, and drink many cups of green tea daily.
